Today MINTROCKET is releasing a free update to the cozy diving adventure hybrid, Dave the Diver, adding a fresh questline, new event boss, novel species, and more. This is the first major content update for the game since its 1.0 launch. The update will be available today on Steam, and will arrive on Nintendo Switch™ at launch on October 26th, 2023. Nintendo Switch™ pre-orders are available on the eShop, alongside a free demo for players who want to test the waters now; pre-orders come with an exclusive 8-bit themed skin for Dave’s boat, plus a Dave-shaped lamp decoration for the sushi restaurant.
The cute, colorful, and critically acclaimed Dave the Diver is surprisingly deep, with tons of secrets and gameplay to uncover as players explore. Players who download today’s update can follow novel missions in the Blue Hole’s Glacial Area, discover additional nighttime fish species, catch crustaceans with new crab and lobster traps (and enjoy a Lobster Party event), unlock a powerful new event boss after collecting all Marinca, and meet a novel VIP customer: The Wandering Merchant, who provides new secret recipes and crops. Speaking of crops, the update adds some farming automations and tools: players can now ask Sammy to help with tasks on the farm; they can set up a chicken feed dispenser and can use a new egg storage box to keep eggs from spoiling. The update also includes improvements to game load times and performance, as well as quality of life additions. Starting today, Steam players can collect new items from the Steam Points Shop, including trading cards, profiles, emojis, and badges.
Aside from the Steam Points Shop items mentioned above, MINTROCKET confirmed all content added in the latest update will be available on the Nintendo Switch at launch. The Switch version will also include new Joy-Con controls for certain activities and minigames— and of course the ability to play on the go: on the bus, on your boat, or while sunbathing on the beach beside the lapping ocean waves.
Dave the Diver is available now on Steam for 19.99 USD, and is available to pre-order for the same price on the Nintendo eShop— there’s less than a month before the game splashes onto Nintendo Switch on October 26, 2023!
CORSAIR®, a world leader in high-performance gear and systems for gamers, content creators, and PC enthusiasts, today released the Platform:6 Modular Computer Desk. Building upon decades of experience delivering industry-leading gear, CORSAIR is once again setting a new benchmark with the Platform:6. In collaboration with the experts at Elgato, one of the most trusted names in streaming and content creation, CORSAIR has created a desk that meets the wide-ranging and ever-changing needs of gamers, creators, and professionals everywhere.
The Platform:6 is a testament to CORSAIR’s commitment to excellence, delivering a combination of premium materials, exceptional craftsmanship, a wide range of customization, and quality-of-life features. More than just a workspace, the Platform:6 is a canvas for expressing your individuality.
Three pre-configured models of Platform:6 are available direct from the CORSAIR webstore and worldwide network of retailers, but CORSAIR has also created an online configurator with a bevy of options so that anyone can create the perfect setup for their needs. The Platform:6 can come in either fixed or adjustable height, with the latter powered by dual electric motors using an LED controller with two memory presets. The surface is available in your choice of sturdy black laminate or the elegant look of dark walnut-stained rubberwood. Optional desk extensions can increase the Platform:6’s already impressive surface area by 33%, and come with side pegboards for even more organization.
Keeping an organized, aesthetically pleasing desktop can be a challenging task for anyone these days, and the Platform:6 was crafted to meet that challenge head-on. A six-foot wide surface offers the space to comfortably fit a PC and peripherals, while a built-in CORSAIR RapidRoute wire management tray, cable routing accessories, and in-desk storage cubby keep everything else out of sight for an easy camera-ready setup. Included movable power strips with USB Type-A and Type-C charging come ready for all your devices both big and small.
The modular rail system at the back of the desk is ideal for mounting meeting or streaming gear such as cameras, lights, and microphones, and utilizes a universal standard aluminum T-Channel crossbar for compatibility with hundreds of aftermarket attachments and accessories. Because multi-monitor setups are so commonplace nowadays, every Platform:6 features dual monitor arms as a standard inclusion, attaching to the rail for mounting up to two 32” monitors (or a single ultrawide 34”).
The optional Elgato Multi Frame is a streamer’s dream, attaching to the base rail system to more than double your rail space and provide even more mounting options. Integrated adapters for Elgato Master Mount and Flex Arm (sold separately) make it fast and easy to position streaming gear just about anywhere on or above the Platform:6, while pegboards and side shelves offer plenty of space to hang and display accessories or swag. Elgato Multi Frame is included in the pre-configured Platform:6 Creator Edition, or can be selected as an add-on through the configurator.
“The Platform:6 is a reflection of CORSAIR’s commitment to meeting the needs of our customers from all walks of life,” said George Makris, Director of Home Tech Product Marketing at CORSAIR. “Working tirelessly alongside our colleagues at Elgato, we’ve put together a desk that raises the bar for quality, versatility, and innovation while exceeding all expectations.”
To get a closer look at how the Platform:6’s meticulous design and engineering can elevate your workspace, explore the configurator or several pre-configured bundles at https://www.corsair.com/platform6.

Not For Broadcast, the chaotic propaganda simulator from developer NotGames and publisher tinyBuild, plans for a special airing of its brand new “Bits of Your Life” DLC on PlayStation 4|5, Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam on Tuesday, Nov. 14, 2023.
Bits of Your Life is the nation’s favourite talk show, where viewers get to learn more about the guests through interviews with their friends, family and co-workers. It’s a tried and tested format… but isn’t it all getting a little stale? It’s time to throw the script out the window, bring out the guests in whatever order feels “right” to you and prepare for unhinged revelations, explosive outbursts and at least a full minute of uncontrollable on-air crying.
The chaos isn’t just about ratings though – It’s a chance for the nation to finally learn more about Peter Clement, the future Prime Minister they have all come to love. Run heart-to-heart interviews with Clement’s close friends and family to understand more about his past as an adored former TV celebrity. Explore his upcoming political future and “unique” views on the state of the country while keeping the audience engaged and begging for more.
Meanwhile you’ll need to tend to the usual important work. Mute any unnecessary expletives, keep guests from getting too rowdy in the green room, and swiftly weave in the VT to keep the ratings high and the executives happy.
Explore multiple endings, secrets, and optimal routes to create the greatest show – or train wreck – possible. Check out the DLC “Bits of Your Life” on its own or as part of the Not For Broadcast season pass, which includes the previously released “Live & Spooky” DLC.
Not For Broadcast’s “Bits of Your Life” DLC will be available on PlayStation 4|5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam on Tuesday, Nov. 14, 2023 for $8.99 USD. The DLC will also be available discounted as part of the Not For Broadcast Season Pass for $24.99 USD.
